Don't worry Kiwis, Jade will get you over the line.
 
Lol.

Typical New Zealand.

They do half a job and then leave.
 
not at all convinced about Luke Ronchi, I saw him play in one of the IPL editions for Mumbai Indians and this was supposed to be his kind of format, go bang bang and that too on flat wickets against some very average Indian domestic bowlers, still he failed miserably despite getting many chances. I think NZL should get things clear here, Brendon should keep, at least as long as Watling is injured and play someone who is a better bat than Ronchi, how about Rutherford who has done extremely well in test arena?

Also, NZL would have absolutely loved to have Jesse Ryder for the CT'13.

Hamish is a poor player in Limited overs cricket. He likes the longer format :swaugh
 
I see a lot of similarity between Shahadat Hossain and Dernbach.

Both are tall, bowls rubbish, and they get over excited after getting a wicket.........and ofcourse, gets to play matches after matches despite the rubbish performance

Shahadat hossain grunts like he is shoaib akhtar :akhtar and bowls like ajit agarkar

Agarkar is no trundler.

At his peak, he was bowling around 140k's. He also used to get early wickets in pretty much every match he played. But he sprayed the ball and used to get hammered.

so was shahadat. He took 2 fif-ers in 2010. One was against the mighty Indian bowling lineup and the other was against England @ lords Ever since that day, he went from bad to worse and soon WILL BE worst
 
Swan has bowled well here... Poms need him to get a couple of wickets at least in his overs
 
Wow Aleem Dar gives Elliot out LBW after he basically middles it with the bat. Shocker.

Lucky DRS is there.
 
Was statistically the most accurate umpire in the 2011 world cup but his umpiring has deteriorated a touch in the past 12 months.

Umpiring has gone downhill over the past few years... Simon taufel was the best of the lot along with Aleem dar... Asad rauf has been horrible recently..

Maybe not intentionally. :)
 
1 for 33, a fine spell from Swann, New Zealand have played him very carefully in full knowledge that they could take their runs elsewhere...

Nice to see you my Kiwi friend. Do you expect Guptill to thrash a century today? :))

English being English (boring).

He has a better chance today.



Kiwi at the moment
